And they are not the only ones. I use the same system of having one address
per site I use and as far as I can tell pretty much every wow related site
I've ever signed up for has been hacked (or willingly sold my e-mail
address). These include:
- wowguru
- wowif
- warcraftpets
- wowhead
- curse

There might be others but these are the ones I receive most spam on.
